The launch of the Ati Radeon HD 4890 is just around the corner and so more pictures of AMD's graphics card with RV790 GPU can be found in the internet. You can find them in our gallery. Not confirmed but obviously trusted are the technical details. 850 MHz chip clock in 3D and between 240 and 275 MHz in 2D. The memory works with 1,950 MHz and 256 Bit. The GDDR5-VRAM is supposed to have 1.024 MiByte.

In diverse shops or websites the graphics cards could be seen already. Models of XFX, Gigabyte and Asus worked a circuit. At launch prices will probably be around 240 Euro, later prices might decrease. That will probably depend on the prices of Nvidia's Geforce GTX 275.

There were several tests on Chinese websites - even if they were not exhaustive. The websites oc-heaven.com and pcinline.com already presented first benchmarks.
